At my former kickboxing gym, we were told to get into our boxing high guard with our 12oz gloves touching the sides of our head. She then instructed us to take turns throwing 10 alternating hooks at each other's guard (3 sets in total) at full force while yelling at us to swing harder. We're not supposed to move at all and instead just sit there in the turtle position, maintaining eye contact and head position until it's our turn to be the attacker. We had no headgear either. Does it seem like a reasonable drill?
